So here I was celebrating NetBeans 8.0 and decided to update my JavaScript libraries while creating a new project. So I waited and waited while the text says Loading... After it was finished loading from CDNJS none of the updated libraries appear in the list of available JavaScript libraries.

So I tried using the Tools menu to select library and try something. Not even an option to add a JavaScript library to an open project. Wow. This is the second major disappointment I had with NetBeans. I am at the point where I am ready to erase NetBeans from my machine and move on to using Bracket exclusively. Now, I am using Ubuntu 13.10 so I am not sure if the flaw is related. NetBeans 8 was downloaded directly from Oracle's site and then installed without using a repository.

Hi, same bug here! In few words when I update the cdnjs file netbeans doesn't show the js libraries anymore, it is stucked in a infinite loading, even when I erased the cache, someone know a solution? (this is the only place in which I found this bug mentioned) sorry if I made some english mistake, thank you!
